It is a continuous search to find a good balance between autonomy, complementarity and shared leadership. But what a wonderful journey it is to find that balance together in this book!

Gwen knows better than anyone else how to effectively get to the essence of the issue. With her direct style and enormous wealth of experience, she does not let go and encourages you to reflect. She helps you make connections and puts you in the position to go to the next level yourself. A new perspective on business has been created.

When I read this book I was moved by the positive drive that the book exudes. The confidence that we can show leadership in a seemingly easy way. We can simply be human in working with others, with whom we spend so much time. But as always, something that seems easy takes a lot of training and dedication. And this book provides insights into this and very good tools for this.

With 'My best team ever', Gwen has succeeded in combining inspiration on the one hand and a lot of practically applicable knowledge and experience on the other. The clear structure of the book makes it easy to read from cover to cover,  but also as a reference work. You often encounter a pompous tone in management literature. Not so with this book. In a pleasantly down-to-earth tone you will learn the principles of Golden Leadership and the way in which 'connection', 'transparency' and 'trust' are crucial values ​​in building teams.

The road to gold is long, lonely and has more dropouts than successors. Lonely but not alone. Without a team you will never achieve that success. The book describes the beautiful balance between personal objectives and team results. Sometimes the team works for you, sometimes you work for the team. You need each other to achieve your own goals. “My best team ever” is the guide for that difficult but oh so beautiful road.

My best team ever! reads like a good conversation with Gwen. Well written, entertaining, fascinating and educational.

My best team ever…. A book that fits into this society 3.0 era. Everything is different and although you go faster alone, you go further together. And that's the point. Together. Everyone has different roles and responsibilities but teamwork is the essence and the path to gold. The great thing about this book is the connection it makes with top sport. Top sport is a pressure cooker in which it is all about getting and staying at the top. This knowledge is a source of inspiration for leaders and teams. Read it, experience it and translate and use these lessons.

Going for gold, who wouldn't want that! Gwen challenges leaders to take the step towards gold. Based on her years of experience as a coach, she offers leaders practical insights to get started with.

Congratulations to Gwen for putting this book together. I now find many of the topics that Gwen applied in our company in this book. Sometimes recognizable from our own experiences, sometimes 'refreshers', and sometimes new, now also beautifully brought together in this book. Excellent tools that can be immediately applied in practice to help you look at things differently. Enjoy reading for you who now have this inspiring book in your hands.

Before you know it, as a leader you have a team around you. A group of people who you expect to achieve something together. Preferably something that you find important. In her book, Gwen shows how such a team can grow to top performance, how they go for GOLD. And what added value that provides for team and leader. An inspiring path to the highest podium, a 'must' for anyone who deals with teamwork and team performance.

Success is a marathon, not a sprint. Natural leadership is recognized instead of 'promoted'. Recipes especially suitable for non-athletes. Let yourself be seduced!
